The Chinese Customs,

It is both surprising and en couraging to learn, on the authori ty of the Inspector-G. neral of Chian's Maritime Custurias, that the Customa receipts for 1913 exceeded those of "1012 - (which wore the highest on recorif) by no less than four million taels. The total receipta amounted to nearly. Tis. 44,000,000. Ten years ago. they amounted to only Tis. 30, 000,000, and this fact is eloquent of the growth and progress which is taking place in spite of political o avulsions with their attendant checks upon trade and commerce We shall have to wait some time iet for the interesting analysis and review of the trade of Chial which are annually compiled by he Statistical Department of the Customs, but we are told that moat of the "porta slow do increase, and this is notably be 0180 with the largest

The common sense of the Chinese in the more advanced town has come to recognise this and to-day female education is a part of the al ambition of the more ealigh trned of the people. It must always remain a fact, however,

were not indebted to any inspira tion or even instruction on the part of their Sage for this real gain to their national life.
